Castlevania

[pulse]

The Castlevania franchise is among my favorite video games as far back as the original NES console. Some of the best and toughest games have come from its nearly 30 year history. The franchise got a reboot and a new storyline several years ago under the name Lords of Shadow. A few years later, Mirror of Fate furthered that storyline and the upcoming Lords of Shadow 2 will conclude it. Though I am still partial to those 2D side-scrollers of the past, I admit I have really enjoyed the new reboot and direction. The games have been excellent. There's a lot of hype surrounding the upcoming title. Konami has confirmed Lords of Shadow 2 will be the last Castlevania by game studio, Mercury Steam, and it will serve as the conclusion to this adaptation/direction of Castlevania. No doubt more Castlevania games will be made in the future, but those will be by a new studio and another reboot of the franchise. Enjoy the trailer....
